A few of these tricks had already been used but I guess having rewatch stuff like Kevin Taylor’s back three lipslide isn’t too bad. Plus I’m pretty sure all the Maxime Géronzi clips have never been seen before… By the way what did you guys think of his mini-part in Bon Voyage?

Bon voyage out on iTunes!

I’m sure most of you are already aware of this but Cliché’s Bon Voyage is out on dvd and iTunes now and Maxime’s stuff in it is absolutely ridiculous. Here’s Nikwen’s shot of his switch ollie at Hotel De Ville, Lyon taken from his interview in issue 112.

When footage like this doesn’t get used for a section you know the standard of skating is going to be insane…

Inside 112

Issue 112 is out and the guy on the cover grabbing the Kingpin logo’s P as he flies out of a tight tranny spot is Szymon Stachon.

This month we’ve got an Effect with Kilian Heuberger, the German ripper who found himself in a coma after a blood clot exploded in his brain, mid session. Most us can’t begin to imagine what he went through, so reading about his traumatic experience and seeing him back on his board, grinding down massive hubbas may come as quite a shock.

With Bon Voyage premiere coming up in less than two weeks, we thought you guys might want to find out about one of Cliché’s secret weapons: Maxime Géronzi. If you think this interview is gnarly, wait till you see what he’s got in the video…

As far as trips go, we covered a DIY mission in Riga (Latvia) organised by the one and only Madars Apse (check back this later week to watch the edit), some of Absurd’s Russian escapades and a Vans urban exploration article. The Vans article actually covers 3 different trips organised with the help of Urban Explorers. The edit might give you an idea of the kind unchartered territories they managed to skate, so watch it here.

This issue is full of surprises so grab yourself a copy before it’s too late!

Cliché’s Bon Voyage world premiere in Lyon

Arthur Derrien — Thu, 14 Mar 2013 11:48:16 +0000

There you have it, the official date has been announced. The Cliché boys have rented out the Lyon’s skatepark to organise a jam for the kids and a best trick contest with the whole team and the local skate shop riders before the viewing. “Bon Appetit‘s” world premiere was held there almost ten years ago and it remains one of my fondest “skate related” memories to this day, so I can only recommend you do what ever it takes to get yourselves over to Lyon in three weeks time.

Cliché’s “Bon Voyage” is going to be nuts.

More Bon Voyage hype!

I guess weird abbreviated titles and trippy editing are also quite fashionable in French skateboarding at the moment…

Above is an HD edit by Julien Sola, featuring K-Rod, Romain Jorda, Oscar Candon and more.

Below is a remix of Kurd Are My Heroes for Live skateboard media K.A.M.H is a Toulouse scene video that came out last year featuring Lucas Puig and his friends… Enjoy!

Cliché: 15 years edit!

The article is in latest issue (110), and it’s really sick. If you haven’t seen it yet, go and get yourself a copy. As usual, the Cliché Boys came through with a banging edit to go with it. Flo, Charles, special guest Chet Childress and the rest of the gang smash it in Lyon, Barcelona and London. Can’t wait for ”Bon Voyage”!

This is the guy that switch flipped the Bercy 5 without a filmer… Who in their righ mind would do such a thing. He’s lucky Janoski had his phone out. Basically he’s one of those skater who’s been amazing for years, but who’s just never been given the opportunity to have a proper part. Not many people know about him outside of France, but that might change when the new Cliché video comes out. He’s not properly on the team yet, so he might not get the full part some people are waiting for, but I’m sure he’ll have a lot of good stuff. In most of the footage you’ll find of him on the internet, he’s 15 and wearing tights , so I thought I should help you out by showing you some recent stuff. It’s not much, but you can see he’s sick.
